Instructions on the sick bag: after use, wrap it up and hand it in to a staff which will be appropriately disposed of.
But staff goes, "eeew yuk..." with both hands making a wall "put it over there" pointing at a nearby toilet and covering her mouth with other hand.
This was a female staff at a CATHAY PACIFIC airline!

Chinese movies often invite/hire Japanese actors and/or actresses, opposed to Koreans which is very rare. Wonder what's the reason behind this.

I don't like the idea of a thought-controlled game. I can imagine players ending up hallucinating when reality and fantasy eventually merge.

Hardly. On YT, people can swear and offend others without those comments being removed. You can also rate the comments, something I think JT should implement.

Simple. Visit the shrine and BOOM back to ten years again with sino-Japan relations back to -273C.
Just remove the dozen or so A-classes then all should be well and everybody (all peacelovers) will be happy.

It shows that they really cared for the disasters they caused by choosing to compensate for their mistakes with their most precise asset: life.
But those affected by the troubles could care less what they do to themselves.

She's gorgeous. However I don't think Asian culture fits in well in the west. Having lied in the west for some time I learned that their music, culture and taste is very different to Asians. Who knows she might do it.
